    I'm currently working on a new sci-fi anthology, "Graffiti On The Walls Of Pierce Brosnan's Garage." This will be a real old-fashioned Twilight-Zone style extravaganza consisting of 15 short stories. I'm on the 13th currently. I made this cover, I think it's what I'll go with, but I'd like a second opinion. That's where you come in. Give me some advice, thoughts, opinions on how I can make this cover the best it can be. If you think your cover design is better, show me it. I hope to get some good ideas here. Feel free to make your own cover and show me it, or slightly modify this one to your liking, or whatever. I may even feature some of them in the book once it reaches completion if I have enough. The sky's the limit. Here's the cover, tell me what you like about it, what you don't, changes I could make, etc. Good luck!

    I say do away with P.B. and put O.S. in his place (pictured below)
    Use a plain wall backing (yellow)
    Two green strain boxes that pop.

    This is my cover I made awhile back.
    I'd love for this to be used. Or at least factor mine in with yours.

    I'll work on that and see what can be done. Believe me, I appreciate any ideas, no matter how outrageous, in fact, the more outrageous the better. If anyone you know has any ideas, or you have any ideas, please tell me. I am open to ideas here, I've decided that a little alternate cover gallery in the back will be a great extra. Anyway, I worked on this cover here last night. This is Alternate #1, so voting is now open on the poll. Which one do you prefer? Vote above, and let's get popping on this hizzaz! alternatecover.jpg

    After some work, here's cover #2, using the above photo. This is Alternate #3 on the above poll. Now we have some options. Which is your favorite? If anyone has any other ideas, give me them. This is shaping up to be a lot of fun.

    Well, there are only 10 options allowed, and I want at least 9 alternate covers. Sorry

    ^ This one of O.S. is the best.
    My vote is Alternate #3
    It has a total euphoric look to it.

    It should be available as a PDF this summer, and the alternate cover gallery will be in the back
